A vote was taken and it was RESOLVED UNANIMOUSLY to:

Reasons for Recommendation

The Community Event programme provides a platform for all service areas across the Council to promote new initiatives, projects or as a means of consultation with the public. The Council will work with the local business clusters, community groups and voluntary sector organisations to develop the community events so that they will enhance and support the local community.
